Council approved the Central Park Commons project at the site of the Telus Boot to go ahead with the 5 tower development.

No word on the proposed possible new skytrain stop at the site or whether this is still under consideration or in discussion between the city and the developer.

Earlier this week, Burnaby City Council approved a major redevelopment plan that will enable a new infill high-density development called Central Park Commons.

This also follows the property’s transaction in 2024. The project was originally spearheaded by developer PC Urban, before it was taken over by developer Anthem Properties following H&R Real Estate Investment’s Trust’s sale of a 50 per cent ownership interest in the development to Crestpoint Real Estate Investments. The project’s architectural design firm is Arcadis.

Dwarfing the 21-storey Boot tower and the recently completed towers on the Vancouver side of Boundary Road, five new additional towers will be built on the property’s surface vehicle parking lots and other vacant spaces to the east and north of the existing tower.

The new towers will reach 31, 38, 52, 60, and 64 storeys in height. To enable the footprint of one of the new towers, a portion of the base podium of the L-shaped Boot tower will be demolished, specifically the 10-storey base podium that fronts Boundary Road. This is expected to reduce the office tower’s floor area from 687,000 sq. ft. to 512,000 sq. ft.
